Dainty finishings” for frocks are almost as important to the Parisienne as the frocks themselves. Here are two pretty ways of using fine old lace. The first sketch shows the lace draped gracefully round the U-shape front of a black satin dress, tied at the back and arranged so that the “rabbitear ends stand out at either side; the cuffs are similarly finished with rabbit-ear” bows. The second idea requires the lace to be draped diagonally across a square neck opening and tied in a loose bow at the side: the sleeve treatment which completes this scheme is particularly charming and uncommon.
